Currently, Representatives of the U.S. House have two year terms and may be reelected indefinitely. U.S. Senators are elected to six year terms and may be reelected indefinitely. Our proposal in the U.S. Congress is to limit the total amount of time a senator may serve to a lifetime 12-years and house reps to a lifetime of 6-years. The total amount of time they would be permitted to serve is 18-years of their lifetime.
